We pay 2200 a month for daycare in NY. Yes, its a huge amount and we struggled when we had to have both kids in daycare however when you do the math its about 100 a day. I do not complain as 100 a day to watch my child for 9 hours with 2 hot meals is really not that much at all.
My family embraced the feminist movement. We are 100% supportive of females doing whatever they want and are qualified to do.
But, it was clear early on that the most significant result was business getting 2 workers for the price of one. Add on that our culture told kids they would never amount to anything without a college degree.
What seemed like a good idea at the time has resulted in nobody is tending to the kids. Auntie and Grandma are at work, too.
Do you really want to people teaching your kids to qualify for food stamps? That is the case at some high dollar places.
I find that to be the problem with the working world these days. You get paid just enough to some what stay afloat but not your worth. College debt don't help this.
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several states, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Of course Seattle had already enacted its own minimum wage increase in 2014, which is higher than the state's minimum wage. https://www.seattle.gov/Documents/De...iyearChart.pdf We're not dumb. We knew that this would mean an increase in prices. We just thought an increase was called-for.
And before you ask, Seattle's minimum wage increase has not resulted in an increase of the unemployment rate. In fact, the unemployment rate has decreased since its passage. https://ycharts.com/indicators/seatt...mployment_rate This of course is because Seattle's population and economy are booming. Hence leading to a higher COL.

What if you work 8 hours a day, for $10-$15 an hour. You lose money when it is all said and done.
The environment is created, as a utopia for the wealthy, with no upward mobility. The rich get richer and the poor more impoverished.
Let the free market dictate the value.
Some people are so out of touch, they think $100 a day is crumbs.
